Rutgers University Early Action for Fall 2025

I guess they’re not announcing in waves anymore. They used to release a few in mid-to-late November, then a big wave in mid December followed by two waves in January.

This is the response I got from the Rutgers admissions office…
The release date on the website is by Jan 31 so in the next week or two. They said they are still waiting on the exact date since they have to prepare and do quality checks before the decisions are released.

Just happened to come across the decision calendar below stating Rutgers EA will be release January 21, 2025. I have no clue how accurate it is but is has been correct for all the other schools my son has applied to.

Here’s hoping……

Looks like a clear typo since their source is Rutgers admissions page which lists the EA decision date as 1/31…

I have deleted several posts containing and discussing admissions data that I’m unable to verify.

Just curious: why are the posts with admissions stats as received by someone from Rutgers being removed/flagged?

See the moderator’s note above.

Other than the total applications received, none of the “data” was included in the communication from Rutgers, yet the post presented it as if it were.

It’s fine if someone wants to hypothesize about acceptance rates, yield rates, etc. it’s not fine to present such hypotheses as official Rutgers communiques.

My son is still “Under Review.” Do they release in waves?

They release in waves and by school. Last year S24 was admitted to SAS and SEBS in the morning with RBS “under review” until late afternoon when it changed to “admitted” as well.

My son had applied to RBS and got admitted…so probably RBS is coming out first
